NAD: Bogner Snorkler 50

[Bxlxaxkxe]

It would definitely intrigue me. The 100w Bogner blue board modded ‘85 JCM800 2203 I had sounded bigger with deeper, more extended lows, but a decent amount of my other 100w amps sounded bigger still and I like the tone and feel more of this Snorkler. It’s more growly, rich, chewy and feels greasier. I just love this Snorkler and have been playing around with some different vintage tubes and bias settings

Haven’t even messed with tubes yet. Land on anything in particular? I’ll dive in once I get some more time. Honestly I’ve barely had time to play this since I got it. Definitely still getting familiar. Noticed today that having the fx loop on with the gate about halfway sounded different in a cool way

For powertubes I liked Siemens, but the Mullard XF2's were also good, didn't like the Sylvania 6CA7's. I'd probably like my RFT and '50's Bugle Boy's even more, but not sure if they can handle it's PV. The very best would be my '50's metal base EL34's made in Holland, but again would be a little scared if they can handle it. I haven't messed with preamp tubes yet, but have a feeling I'll like most either my Siemens E83CC, '50's Bugle Boys or '50's Tungsram's, maybe also '50's Fivre. Yeah with loop on you can get it to sound quite good at very low levels. When boosted with my Klon it gives me one of my favorite, most unique grindy, chewy sounds I've had so far
